Every 3 months feels a little short. 6 mo to a year would probably be better. I'd love to see them regularly tweak the most and least used perks to encourage different builds.

Buffing solo over swf will discourage swf. Not all of us play with irl friends. We make friends with strangers for swf. If I'm better off or on par as a solo I'm not going to bother seeking out people. That's been one of the cool parts about DBD is the social aspect. Even worse I wont be recruiting friends. If we stop…

I main Artist and I'll help you out. Spread out, especially on levels with different floors/2 story buildings. If I shoot all three crows, the cool down is too long for me to do damage with them. I can only chase one person down. This means I typically shoot one crow at a time so I can snipe. If you zig zag unpredictably…

Really liked it. Loads of BP. Only downside is now I'm saddled with 70+ dowsing rods I can't use because I was getting them faster than I could use them.

Every time I use that perk I get no value from it and I play on PC. I go a few weeks without touching it then I get a game where I am close to wiggling free and I try it again. I always regret wasting the slot.

I honestly don't mind people throwing in the towel when the outcome is inevitable. Really the only DCs that drive me nuts are when survivors do it so early the game isn't decided. What's the point of even starting a game at that point? And you're screwing over 3 other players. If a killer DCs they really aren't screwing…

Those are really good.

Yeah this is a bit of a problem. I'm saying this and I frequently see people frozen the first 5 seconds or so. I can see it as bad from a killer perspective but only if all the survivors actually load fast. It's frustrating to start working a gen and see other survivors standing like mannequins. I've played killer and have…

For survivor it's whoever I'm currently dumping points into. They're mostly just skins once you unlock their perks. I kinda wish each survivor had a BK ability unique to them like killers. It'd make choosing a main matter. For killer it's Artist. She had a learning curve but I love the information she gets and once I got…

I just started letting my sons take turns playing with me. I think they'll get skill checks eventually but right now it's hazardous to work a gen with them. So it's been rough. Fun but rough.

Saw an awesome use of reassurance where the map spawned a hook right next to a gen. One player was hooked and the other came in, used reassurance then worked the gen. Since the killer would assume the unhook would come first he/she never came back to check that gen. Gen popped then came the unhook and they got away while…

CoH burns up so much time for survivors that I think it's a decent trade-off. They either have to run small game with it and waste a slot or spend time finding a totem on their own. Then every time they want to heal they have to run to the totem. On the flip side if people stopped using CoH or it we're nerfed they could…

I was tunneled last night. It was obvious too. He was in chase with someone and spotted me and broke chase to go for me even though I was quite a bit further away than the Yui he was chasing. It totally backfired. Well, maybe not totally, I did die. The other three managed to pound out 4 gens before the killer got me to…

Killer it's a 3k or better. 2k is a draw and I really don't feel bad about it. Especially if I can force the two escapees to run and abandon their teammate(s). Survivor it's 5 gens and 2 or better escapes. For some reason I don't look at 2k as a draw when I'm survivor but I do as a killer. Dunno why.

I try to count the hooks when I make a move like the OP. Generally I just avoid death hooking anyone in those mercy games. Otherwise I play full tilt. If I down a player on death hook they get "slugged". I put that in quotes because I really only consider it slugging when you camp them and don't let them get picked up.…

I'm in EST too and have a friend I play with most nights. Would be nice to have more on mics. We're pretty relaxed so being new is fine. Add me on discord VicRatlhead#6129

I have a friend I play with most nights and sometimes we have a third. We're all older and don't really let the game get to us. Add me on discord if you want. VicRatlhead#6129.

I've seen the same results. Survivors buckling down on gens now. My last few solo q games have been way better than I'm used to. All that's necessary is adding an incentive to do gens? Crazy.

Dad bod. Not unhealthy, just not ripped. This is the body of a guy who's moderately active but doesn't spend hours in the gym everyday. A dad. Perfectly healthy and not obese but there's a belly there. Anybody who thinks promoting a normal body type is promoting being overweight is a looney.

A couple streamers do videos about cheaters and now everyone sees it. Popular streamers might see it regularly because cheaters like embarrassing streamers but it isn't as bad for everyday players. There have been times I suspected but it's never been obvious. Most of the time I'll just chalk it up to that guy being better…

I always try not to face camp but there have been more than a few games where people either run right across my FoV to the hook and it's an easy intercept or they harass and run me right next to the hook. I don't get it. Wait 5 seconds for the killer to maybe leave. Call me crazy.

With Franklin's getting so popular I tend to spend them on 1st gen right off. I'd rather save them for 4th. It's harder to get and you often have to spot where the killer is setting up their "3" so you can break it up. I'm just tired of saving an item only to get it knocked out of my hand or....you know...die early without…

I'd be happy if I could just migrate from PC game pass to Steam. They're both PC. Steam just frequently has better deals.

I play pretty similarly. Although if the other three survivors allow that first hook to get all the way through I shift to total no mercy mode. It's funny how much it pisses me off to watch a survivor I left alone on hook get through both phases with no rescue.

Basekit doesn't bug me. It's about removing something that slows games down in a seriously unfun way. The 22 second unbreakable kinda pushes it IMO though. Maybe unbreakable should let you get up in full health after 45 sec? IDK. Bully squads are rare enough and the funny thing about the complaints against them is they…

I don't really see the problem with strong gen perks for killers or survivors. It's the asymmetry that is part of the fun. One game a speed perk is great, another game a second chance perk would've helped more, etc. If you nerf everything the replay disappears because the perks and items change the game less and less.

As an artist main I say cleanse away...

There's a lot of problems with survivor suicide. This is probably the tiniest one.

Definitely could get boring. It'll be a good 40-60% of matches that end in a mori. I was honestly psyched to get mori'd by Ghostface the other day since it was one I hadn't personally seen yet. On the other hand I'm getting bored with Mikey's since I watch it frequently enough.

Downed or hooked, and it's just remaining survivors. You can still mori if you have two left and down the last survivor. It's just removing the necessity of dragging that last survivor to a hook for the guaranteed sacrifice. Slugging for the 4k is going to be a weak strategy with or without unbreakable. 45 sec isn't that…

Slug for the 4k? It takes 22 seconds to get up with unbreakable. Unless you're some super nurse slugging for 4k isn't happening.

All these people in thread talking about MMR when the original post was made on the reset day, smh. Failing up on MMR isn't the problem on the 13th. My escape rates are smaller on solo but I still get eacapes. Big thing is aura perks. Bond gives a lot of info nearby. Even no auras tell you something if the terror radius is…

The toxic comments are a lot more rare for me than the good sport comments. Generally I complement killers that play well. Most of the time I get good luck wishes on my next game. The slugging thing in the op is kind of a dumb thing to whine about. It's not like you were stopping them from crawling around. The second guy…

When I let a final player go it's not because I specifically like them. Sometimes they're just the last in a team I thought played well. No insult to the ones who got sacrificed.

Still like it so, yes. I think the slower gen speeds encourage face camping so that kind of bugs me. The justification for the killer buff seems to be "well, elite swf teams still wreck killers." And I'm not sure that's the way to balance a game without an easy to use in game voice chat. Still having fun with it though. I…

A You really want a game only balanced around the top players? I mean I get more 4ks with my killers than escapes with my survivors. Shouldn't we expect it to be about even in a "balanced" game?

Not a great idea to balance a game without in game chat based on good SWFs. I'm kind of new but have been a lifelong gamer so learning hasn't been too hard. I play survivor mostly and dump the vast majority of my BP into survivors. Plan my builds, practice looping, etc. I play killers to get rift challenges and dailies. I…

Toolboxes are gone pretty quick. Do they really need nerfed? Unless you get lucky with plunderer's you're doing the majority of repairs without a toolbox.

Haven't had much trouble. I did freeze once while the entity was taking me. I blame the Pyramid Head smacking the hook while the animation was going on. Why do killers do that? It makes the clicky teabaggers look tame.

Longer gen times made camping more viable. It's great reassurance is getting added to discourage camping but a little sad that it's a perk people may or may not carry and it's really only useful against killers who actually camp. It'll be like bringing unbreakable because you got slugged a few times and then ever killer…

I agree. I'm a survivor main and dump the majority of BP into the survivor side. I level my killers to 15 so I can get whatever 4 rank two perks are available mostly just to do challenges. I wound up at Gold II without trying. I show mercy a lot too. Pretty sure if I went all out I could hit red rank with my level 15…

I just do it while waiting in queue. Is it really that bad? There's always some jackass not readying up and making you wait the full minute before the match starts anyway.

Oh man, Artist is pretty good on big maps as well. Especially against people who don't understand her power. I can be on the opposite side and fire the crows at a gen and watch the swarm run away from the gen. You can keep pressure while a long way away.

Probably the best post in this thread IMO. I had 3 Dwights leave a Jake to die on his first hook while popping gens. I often show mercy when I play killer but not that game. Those Dwights had to die.

Pretty rare for me as survivor or killer. If they were secret I think they might be more attractive but if the other side is paying attention it boils down to who's closer. I tend to avoid them on the bloodweb if I can.

Lol, doesn't have to be the movie version. The actress that played her in Dr Sleep looked pretty good. Poor Shelly Duvall... On a serious note. If Jack is the killer and the map is the Overlook it absolutely has to be Wendy. Danny has different antagonists.

Some do. Had a Trickster let me and another survivor repair gens after the other 2 DCed. Probably changes with where we're at between rank resets. Haven't had much mercy in the past week but next week we might see more. Usually I'll let survivors go if there's a DC. Doesn't seem fair. Had a game recently though where a…

Realistically it could be a pain to even get to the part that's broken without at least a screwdriver or the right wrench. Most covers are screwed on. They're just mcguffin objectives.

Will add you on discord. I play on pc through XBox. Really trying to get to a point where there's always at least someone to play with at any given time. I'm not hyper competitive. Just nice to be able to communicate. My discord is VicRatlhead#6129

EST? If so my friend and I are usually on about the same time. We're in the same boat, just want 4 on voice so we can coordinate better. My disc is VicRatlhead#6129 I'll shoot a request.
